Customer Reviews

Good Buy

This was a great buy. Like the seller said, some slight markings in pencil every now and then, but their no biggie. Im real satisfied with this experiance. Especially being that it was the first online book purchase I have ever made.

The book is as described.

The book is as described ,but took almost 20 working days to get this book.otherwise no complain.

quick delivery

The book was brand new and got here in three days. Cheaper than the bookstore and the wait was very short.

Good, could be better

As teacher of an Environmental Engineering course (at Ariel Academic College, Israel) and as consulting engineer, I find the book useful, but... Some areas are weak: Population and demand prognosis, Resource planning, Economic evaluation and optimization, Advanced water treatment (membrane and ion exchange technologies, for example), Desalination of brackish and sea water. Each chapter has a well explained exercise, a very useful feature, but most are non metric. All in all, I know of no better textbook, and it is worth its money.

water and waste

The book is very easy reading and understandable, but it does not have answers to the work problems which is most important. It has a good balance of theory and applications.
